My name is Luca Luciani, I live in Rome and “lukshots” is my internet corner where I try to express my passion for photography. This fascination began many years ago using my parents camera when I was little and later borrowing photographic equipment from friends.
In 2003 with the arrival of digital cameras my passion became more and more steady. My first digital camera, the Cyber-shot DSC-P71, was my faithful companion everywhere I went. Technology gave me the opportunity to shoot as many photos as I wanted without restrictions and my desire to constantly experience and research made me aware of the camera potential and limits. This happened with all the cameras I used over the years (Sony DSC-V1, Nikon D40x, Nikon D7000) and with my latest and beloved actual camera too, the Nikon D750, wich more often than not gives me great photos.

Photography has always been a constant between all my passions: Cooking (I love cooking and taking pictures of the dish afterwards), Digital Technology (cameras are becoming more and more digital today and I’m very much into this field being a consultant for professionals and small business), Information Technology (I’ve always experimented with different softwares and lately I’ve became very adept with image processing since it is now a requirement in order to produce quality photo), Web Design (I’m used to create and manage websites like this one), Nature (my great passion for nature has been the main inspiration for my shots and for the use of macro lens), Travel (travel and photography since the dawn of time have always been a perfect pair), Sailing (my love for the sea and sailing give me the perfect opportunity to search for beautiful views and shots otherwise impossible to realize).

Thanks for visiting my blog 🙂 ….. and another Nikon user – great cameras aren’t they?! I progressed in a similar way to you from a point and shoot to my first DSLR, a D70s. Now photography is more than a passion, it’s an addiction and I feel withdrawal symptoms when I can’t satisfy my cravings!

Luca! So nice to see you again! Thanks for following my blog. I love your work . . . I shall be looking for inspiration and advice as I begin to work with my new macro lens, a Christmas gift. My best to you for a joyful new year!
